Whether you’re thinking a large residential remodeling project, a kitchen makeover, the addition of an in-law suite, a front facade update or you want to discuss general remodeling ideas, be sure to contact Stu Garlington at 301-880-0103

.Towne Craft Builders, LLC — with proper state and county licensing requirements — opened their doors in September 2002 to serve the residents of St. Mary’s and Calvert Counties. In 2006, Towne Craft expanded its focus to include remodeling and became Towne Craft Builders and Remodelers.

You may be thinking of a front exterior makeover (like our St. Mary's county customer to the left), a new room addition, or finishing off the basement to meet your lifestyle needs.

The following is a sampling of the various home remodeling and major renovation projects completed to date.

Recent home remodeling/addition highlights:

• {Lexington Park} Our client turned an unused formal living room into a home office/study by installing French Glass Doors in the openings between the foyer and living room and living and dinning room.
• {Leonardtown} Front Porch Makeover. This lovely waterfront home’s front porch had seen better days. The wood rails and post where showing their age and the concrete porch slab had settled in the middle by three to four inches. Towne Craft removed the old concrete slab added the fill necessary to bring the porch up to grade, tamped the fill, and replaced the concrete with brick pavers. The rails and posts were replaced with low maintenance vinyl rails and posts and handrails were added at the stairs for safety.
• {Lusby} Major renovation of lakeside home, sitting 30' below street level, where two-story screened porches on each side of residence were removed, making way for kitchen makeover; meditation room and two exercise rooms; all materials and debris were hand carried to and from the job via a series of wooden walkways and stairs.
• {Wildewood} Knocking out walls; clearing surrounding wooded yard for a luxury in-law suite addition with custom cabinetry in the library and master bath; Anderson Windows and doors throughout; high efficiency gas furnace and air conditioner and custom paint colors.
• {Leonardtown - Singletree} Finished basement assistance. As often happens, a more than capable do-it-yourselfer with a limited amount of time and good intentions ran into scheduling conflicts. This client called Towne Craft to help move the project along. We took over where the owner’s time ran out and helped get the project back on track.
• {Sotterley} A 1980’s built Cape Cod front exterior makeover; from first meeting with resident, it took 60 days for conceptual drawings, permit acquisition and makeover construction; owner judges he already has recouped his financial investment.
• {Great Mills} 18’ x 22’ Addition to split-foyer home; with full bath added in the existing basement.
• {Leonardtown} Screened porch on an existing two-story deck facing Breton Bay. These owners of a beautiful waterfront home found they couldn’t enjoy the view from their deck all season long. Now with an enclosed screened porch on part of the upper deck, they enjoy outdoors all season.
• {Leonardtown} Basement Exit Window. As often happens, a basement without an outside exit is finished. While this makes excellent use of the existing structure and certainly economic sense sometimes it doesn’t make safety sense. Even when a room isn’t a bedroom if someone could be trapped in a fire in an underground room you might, as this owner did, want to provide an emergency exit. In this case, we cut through the foundation wall and installed an exit window with an oversized window well so if need be, the occupants of the room could climb to safety in the event of a fire. The added benefit: a once dark room now has some natural sunlight.
• {Hollywood} 22’ x 32’ three-car garage with second floor in-law apartment above; included a 14’ x 6’ veranda/entrance on first floor with a 14’ x 6’ covered deck on second floor.
• {Dunkirk} Custom gazebo added to an existing deck

These projects — and those about to commence — range in price from $6,000 to $500,000. All of the completed home renovations have already added long-term investment value to the homeowner’s asset.
